The Congreso de la Nación is the legislative branch of the government in Argentina, modeled after the United States' bicameral system, and is comprised of two distinct houses: the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies. This legislative body is responsible for making the country’s laws and is regulated by the Argentine National Constitution. The chamber holds 257 deputies who are elected directly in the provinces, while the senate includes three senators from each province and three from the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, totaling 72 senators. The structure and functioning of the Congreso de la Nación reflect the country’s commitment to democratic governance and the rule of law.
